ronald reagan sure did. you saw jack's ideas at work in the economic expansion of the 1980's in 1990's. -- and 1990's. nothing could be more foreign to jack's way of thinking than to accept poverty as a permanent way of life. he did not believe we all belong to some class or station in life. he went into a lot of troubled neighborhoods. never once did he look around and despair. others might think it is never going to get better than that. not jack kemp. he did not buy into that attitude, and neither do we or most americans. america is exceptional for this very reason. both parties tend to divide americans into our voters and their voters. let's be really clear. republicans must steer far clear of that trap. [applause] we need to speak to the aspirations and a zaydis of every american -- and anxieties of every american. so no one is left out from the promise of america. it will require a bold departure from the approach government has taken over the last five decades. with a few exceptions. government's appr

mitt romney is not ronald reagan. what was striking is how many republicans were willing to say on the record that the comparison just doesn't cut the mustard. those things you just mentioned. the economy is so much weaker, very different electorate. ronald reagan didn't have a tough primary battle the way that mitt romney did. but the biggest difference between these two elections is that the country was so different then. the south was still considered democratic. it was only beginning to trend republican. so the week before the election, you had ronald reagan c campaigning in new york city trying to win new york. jimmy carter was campaigning in texas, unimaginable today. it was a very different map, and that's one of the reasons that it's so hard for romney to win this election. what's amazing is we've seen republicans make this ronald reagan comparison before. about four years ago when john mccain fell in the polls, his people also trying to draw that comparison. >> to your point, let me put up the screen on the r
